Frolic

Posted by Fricka on

I wanted to show off some event goodies from Lolapop and Schadenfreude today and figured I’d go with creepy. Rabbit masks scream creepy. And I’m finally trying out a mesh body for the first time. So fancy.

You can find Lolapop’s awesome jewelry @ A Clockwork Spiral and both jewelry pieces are donation items that benefit The National Kidney Foundation. Schadenfreude’s amazing gacha masks can be found @ The Arcade. Both events run until October 1st.

Faded Sky

Posted by Fricka on

I hate hot weather so basically as soon as it gets over 80 I feel like I’m going to spontaneously combust.  Thus I’ve unofficially deemed it summer in my part of the world. Which means it’s only going to get hotter from here on out which makes Fricka a sad horned demon thing.

With my lamentations about weather aside I’ll get on with the blog. Ruina Kessel of the newly rebranded Devae. has released some awesome mesh camis that would be perfectly at home in my present climate. I wish I had one irl right now. The cami comes in about a billion delicious color combos and I was colorstruck trying to pick a favorite but a quick trip to the Arcade landed me this pretty teal hair from Exile and it matched great with the Faded Sky color combo and boom, a look was born. I also modded up a pair of Khor feets from [europa] to match. I’ve mentioned it before but I absolutely adore that [europa] includes a blank texture to make for easy modding.

Now I’m going to go crank the A/C and sip a cool beverage.

Catching Flies

Posted by Fricka on

I’m slowly trying to gather all the mesh body parts out there to make appliers to go with new skins I’ve been working on.  Here’s my take on the mesh mouth from Loud Mouth.

Little Yellow Riding Hood

Posted by Fricka on

If you’ve managed to keep up with my sporadic postings over time, you know I’m a huge fan of Ruina Kessel.  I love her creations to pieces!  Ruina recently released a set of boots that are awesome!  She has several color sets available from basic to wild.  The boots use a HUD to allow you change the colors of the main boot and heel/sole/toe separately to create tons of different color combos!  I went with a summery combo of sun/grapefruit to match the cute yellow hooded cape from :) BCC’s gacha at The Arcade.

Silver Quick

Posted by Fricka on

I’m super sorry I didn’t manage to get to get this post done up when these glorious boots from Schadenfreude were still out for Collabor88.  They were from December’s cycle so don’t appear to be available right now but maybe they’ll pop up in Allegory’s shop eventually… I hope so, these boots are just made of lust.

So I’ve been listening to an unseemly amount of Moonface lately and well, Spencer Krug’s voice just does it for me… he could sing the phone book and I would melt, I just, that voice… unf.  Yeah, that little random morsel of information had very little to do with this particular look but I happened to be listening to Heartbreaking Bravery while I was piddling about in SL and yeah, there you have it.

I’m swimming in cold meds at the moment.  Not gonna lie, the fuzzy headed-ness is kinda nice and adds this interesting dimension to just sitting and listening to music.  That visceral reaction to music I’ve always had is so seriously amped up right now and wow.  Just wow.

There, I’m done sharing.  I really should have put that on a personal blog.
/hits publish anyways

La Fée Verte

Posted by Fricka on

Ruina Kessel of .{Rue}. has created an awe inspiring new line of skins that truly are works of art.  If you’ve ever lamented the lack of fantasy skins in SL, fret no more because Ruina has you more than covered.  She made a billion colors (60 to be exact), of which you are certain to spend hours agonizing over which one to wear.  And she even named a skintone after me that made me squeee with fangirlish delight. <3  In the pic I’m showing off the Damu skintone that looks beyond brilliant with this lovely little ensemble from Evie’s Closet.

Revenants of Fire and Ice

Posted by Fricka on

The new coats and pants from [][]TRAP[][] are made of pure win.  Actually everything made by Selos Dae is made of pure win.  In other news, Ruina Kessel continues to indulge my horn fetish with amazing new horn styles and ellantha Larsson updated my most favorite piercing ever.  <3

I should mention that this snapshot took an obscene amount of time to make between disappearing sculpties, my being stupid and SL being an ass.  But here it is, I hope it does the content justice.
